That’s a classic!  You could fill this thread with William Shatner.

Here's what Mike Nesmith had to say about Run DMC's cover of his song:  “I just loved their take on it. They changed around the lyrics some, but I didn’t care. The song isn’t exactly deep.”

The woman in that video reminds me of Tipper Gore.
